A path with art

Hi! I’m Bronwen

I’m a dynamic creative professional with twenty years’ experience as cellist and teacher, with ancient history as a public servant and a disability professional in universities.

More recently I’ve trod a path through France and Australia accompanied by a sketchbook and watercolour pencils, hence the art.

The thread that is woven through it all:

I love encouraging people to pursue their dreams and aspirations.

I love to assist and inspire children and adults to nurture their creative being.

 

Artist’s studio @FABRIK in Lobethal

During March, April, and May 2026, I will have a studio in FABRIK arts, Lobethal (the old Onkaparinga Woollen Mill). This will be a chance for me to work on textile projects and display and sell my watercolour art.

Cosy workshops (Rag Rugs, Artist Way Meetups, and Watercolour sketching) for two people at a time will be held in the space, so check out my Events page for costs and dates.

At a minimum, I will be in the studio:

Friday 11 am – 4pm
Saturday 1pm  – 4pm
Sunday 11:30 – 4pm

however, I may be in other days and for longer sessions. It would be great to see you there!

Why a path with art?

 

The name of my endeavour is inspired by a book by Jack Kornfield, A Path with Heart. His approach is mindful, my approach is artful. A Path with Art is taking a purposeful course of action in life that is full of creativity. I once had a yoga teacher who used the beautiful mantra:

Every day I excel making my life blissful, purposeful, and meaningful.

Being creative is not a way exclusive to the artist and its key is opening to life, being curious, finding meaning and beauty in the events of daily life to reclaim wonder and joy.

And for me, it is not just one thing. It is more like a kaleidoscope. I’m here to encourage my fellow beings to find that joyful path.

We all tread a path through life – for many it’s arduous – their heart isn’t fully in what they’re doing. In fact, you may know that the word ‘path’, a Greek word (THERE YOU GO!) was originally a word for ‘suffering and disease’ … dis-ease … think pathos, pathetic, pathology and antipathy.

Life is a journey, it has its downs and ups.

So ‘path’ is also found in empathy, sympathy and telepathy. And it is also found in treatments such as homeopathy. These go to the heart of what it is to be human, so maybe there is hope.

So maybe I’m a CREATOPATH! Check out what I get up to.

Cards arrived today … way too nice to use as stationery … thinking I will have them framed and will hang them in my room. They are really, really lovely.

Camino Skies

The colours and perspective invite me into a sense of the place and remind me of my own travels. They are very easy on the eye and I liked finding things that I didn’t expect like the umbrellas, little flags and pot plants – the finer details

Bronwen’s unique and timeless postcards sparked my imagination with stories of adventure. I’d definitely recommend them as handy for birthdays, to slide in with a gift, or to inspire your own creative journey.

The post cards are a delight.  It’s as close as I will get to France this year so they are a special blessing.
